gwydion* Aung San Suu Kyi's party has won in Myanmar.
* There have been multiple terrorist attacks in Paris with bombs, guns, and possibly a suicide bomb. At least 120 are dead, but the numbers are not final and many of the attackers are still loose so there may be more coordinated attacks.
I can’t do this one in depth. I’m just not up to it, but that doesn’t mean I’m not seriously distressed by it.

* I'm about halfway through the GoT Season three rewatch, and am now confirmed in my opinion that this is the season when the butterfly effect of all the D&D arbitrary changes really start damaging plot and character coherence. I think it's like slow boiling a lobster, the temperature gradually rising. It's all faultlines in season three even though the whole thing won't fall apart completely until the start of season five. I don't know how for I'll go with the rewatch. I am planning to do Season four, but I don't think I can stomach five, given how little I wanted to be watching that offensive nonsense when it was new. I'm not convinced I will be able to tolerate six when it comes out. It's heart breaking. The cast is so good and they are trying so hard, but the scripts make noticeably less sense one to the next.
